The thread about which members live in the best/worst climates inspired me to find out what our average collective climate looks like. Since we live in all sorts of climates, I thought it would be interesting to figure out. As you can see, it's a temperate climate with cool winters and warm summers. I previously made an average climate out of the 100 largest cities in the world, and perhaps unsurprisingly our climate is much cooler than that one. What do you guys think of it?

For cities with more than one member, I added extra weight to those places.

It's missing a bunch of info such as record highs/lows, precipitation days and sunshine, so it may make it harder to properly rate btw.

A bit lackluster crummers with cool winters. Also doesn't look far off from an ideal climate that would win a dream climate tournament in here IIRC. Great thread idea!

The winters could be much worse though, hence the high rating. Much worse being something like 2C avg high/-2C avg low and slush.

Great thread idea! As for the climate, it's decent. Inoffensive temps and rain, but just a bit too cool year-round and too much summer rain. Looks a lot like Milan actually. B

B- (let's say the sunshine is around 2500 hrs). It's okay I guess. I wouldn't hate living in this climate. Summers are alright but winters are in that no man's land of being chilly but not really cold enough for regular snowfall.

Do you mean using members' hometowns? I did a continent battle a while back using the 20 largest cities on each continent cdweather.boards.net/thread/4287/continent-battle-average-largest-cities.
